I have a strange feeling that Def Jam just didn't know what to do with him and/or how to market him.

Add em to the long list of talented artists signed to Def Jam that squandered years of time away...

He might sign to Disturbing tha peace

Hes good friends with Luda

And he was with Zulu on his Rhytm roullette show

I think he does better on his own but Luda a good friend of his and he probably will get better treatment.

Naw I'm at the point where I know it's not the labels fault sometimes.

People don't understand is a business and it takes more than good music to sell. Krit didn't make himself marketable to sell. What's his demographic? Who was def jam gonna push him to?

I saw a LLOYD interview where he explain 360 can help an artist or break them it depends on their grind. It's true.

I love krit and he probably signed a 360 to get out of MS but his music is made for the indie crowd not mainstream and I think that's where artist mess up on.

stones throw or rhymesayers would be great labels for krit. he would be around creative talent and a label that will not interfere with his creative process.
